Don't get in a rush. The Slant Six servers suck. They're getting better, but they still suck out loud.

This game is a big fat failure. How in the world can you release an online only game and have such shitty servers and glitches? I have played maybe 1 full hour of play since last week just because it takes a few tries to get in the game, then if I am in a game I get killed instantly before I even start the game which puts me back in the lobby. Or I can't even get in because it Network failures constantly. And if I invite my friends to join a private match it takes 10 steps just to accept the invite. It seems like pretty much all online games that are released are half ass done and they just expect people to deal with it until they release patches to fix it. I was a big Socom fan from the PS2 days

I’m not having any of the issues you speak about; I can join games, invite friends, the works. When the server does fuck up, I log out, and then log right back in, presto…problem fixed. Good point about an online only game having good servers at launch, but they have a team of what, 30 people maybe, coding and testing the game, they don’t have any real way of knowing what’s going to happen when 15,000 people try logging on all at once, even the beta only had a few thousand people a night. If they could get rid of the damn in game lock ups now it would be nice.

Over all it’s a good game though, it captures the spirit of what SOCOM is all about pretty well. If you run around doing your own thing like a fucking idiot all the time, you’re going to get shot in the face, work with your team.

I had this game preordered for months then I played the beta and had to get my money back.
